FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Fourth Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the
draft finalized by the Steel Tubes, Pipes and Fittings Sectional Committee had been approved by
the Metallurgical Engineering Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1958 and its first, second and third revisions were issued in
1963. 1968 and 1979 respectively. While reviewing the standard, the Committee has felt it
necessary to revise this Indian Standard with the following modifications:
a) Thickness and mass is aligned with IS 1239 (Part 1) : 1990.
b) All amendments have been incorporated.
In the formulation of this standard, due consideration has been given to the trade practices
followed in the country in this field. Due consideration has also been given to international
co-ordination among the standards prevailing in different countries. Assistance has been derived
from the following publications:
ISO/R 336 : 1976 Plain end steel tubes, welded or seamless; general table of dimensions and
masses per unit length. International Organization for Standardization.
BS 6323 : 1982 Steel tubes for mechanical and general engineering purposes. British Standards
Institution.
This standard contains clauses 8.1 and 12.1 which call for agreement between the purchaser and
the manufacturer.
This edition 5.2 incorporates Amendment No. 1 (March 2000) and Amendment No. 2 (April 2006).
Side bar indicates modification of the text as the result of incorporation of the amendments.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with,
the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded
off in accordance with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )’. The number
of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified
value in this standard.
